  1. I went back and looked at the 159th Forums during that time period and found the answer. We upgraded operating systems, because we couldn't get the NSIS installer to work with Server 2003 WE. We tried what nscode had suggested and then even tried ripping an ISO of the DVD. Both attempts did not work.

     

    We did confirm that NSIS.exe worked on Server 2008 WE, if thats any help to you.

  2. I think what we call agree on is the FC2 behaves the best and has the most stability when running it stock. No ATC, no scripts, no tacview, no server export, ect, etc. Especially if we are going to stress an already unstable platform with 50-60 clients its stupid to try anything else.

     

    Want I want to do is test FC2 within its own confines. Standby for dates and times. I've started making missions to see exactly what our server and the software will and will not tolerate. We will also be testing staggered loadins by passing out the passwords in individual studs channels to see if that makes it easier for everyone to join.

     

    I think its safe to say though that LOCERF will remain as stock as possible until we iron out all other issues.

  3. The hope was that there was some stability/functionality gained in FC 1.2 versus 1.12 when hosting 50+ clients. We were proven wrong! The moderating staff now has to figure out what FC 1.2 will and will not tolerate. Most likely there will be some type of stress tests planned with different missions, triggers, etc.

     

     

     

    To sum up the event:

    • The first failure was due to the server running both FC 1.2 and ATC (clients getting dropped repeatedly)
    • The second faliure was due to IC issues.
    • The third failure was due to a corrupt server config file.
    • The fourth failure was a server.exe crash most likely due to the mission.

    We will work with the 104th to try and figure out the cause of the crash.

     

    Thanks to the 51st, =RvE= and 104th for trying to host this God awful mess of a Red Flag!

     

    EDIT

     

    One other thing: We need to treat the situation as if FC 1.2 was just not designed to have that many players in game at one time. We may have to return to a static map, few or no triggers with no moving AI.

  4. Forgive me for posting in English.

     

    The teams have been assigned. The Russian pilots requested 8 positions. 4 lead by =RvAF=345 and 4 lead by =RAF=Nomad. I therefore posted the pilots on the blue team as

    =RvAF=1: Mig-29S

    =RvAF=2: Mig-29S

    =RvAF=3: Mig-29S

    =RvAF=4: Mig-29S

    =RAF=1: Su-27

    =RAF=2: Su-27

    =RAF=3: Su-27

    =RAF=4: Su-27

    I'll let dragony handle any further clarifications.

    Respectfully,

  7. Extending deadline for STRIKE and CHOPPER pilots only (i.e. Ka-50, A-10A, Su-25A, Su-25T)

     

    New Deadline is Wednesday

     

    EDIT:

     

    Teams published, no longer accepting applicants.

     

    Squads may put pilots on reserve if there are cancellations or no-shows.

  8. Panzertard, it's a hard thing to do to put enemy Ka-50s close to each other while not having them close to fighter bases that they could 'base rape' all the time. Let's see what we can do with our new missions when they are ready.

     

     

    One word: Manpads, and lots of them.

     

    Also trigger base defenses. One of my favorites is BRDM's driving at 100km/h. They will always ruin your day, especially if they stop and spawn more manpads :D

  9. Crunch, I'd love to see some Farps closer to the action - It took me 5 hours from Kutaisi with my beloved Shark (refuelling only - biobreaks while on AP) to get up and find a lone shark near Krymsk. (Sorry Hinks, you didnt know what happened there bud).

    Ufortunately Gelendzhic had not been taken by our side yet - so I had to leave the chopper there for later pickups.

     

    Otherwise I have to keep harrasing Mineral Vody until you surrender - its only 2 hours away. :D

     

    :megalol:

     

    ...only Panzer :D

  11. Hello

     

    Nice to see that this topic seems useful for many people :)

     

    Thanks to all dedicated admin/users for their tips :)

     

    I just tried (who never try never succeed) to launch simulator.exe (multiplayer game) on "my" server : I confirm an onboard graphic chipset doesn't make it :

    Faulting application simulator.exe, version 1.0.2.0, faulting module DXRenderer.dll, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x0002c007.

     

    Too bad, we succeeded with FC1 on the same hardware (PIV @ 3Ghz, 2 GB RAM, S3 ProSavage graphic chipset with 32MB shared RAM).

     

    Well, let's continue to search for a better hardware, whithin our limited finantial ressources...:vertag:

     

    Cheers,

    Az'

     

    You can get a low profile video card for as little as $20.

  12. Another reason you might need a card for 2.0 is that we had to change the desctop res. from 1024X768

    to 1280X1024 (pic) and we found out the reason is that if you force 2.0 to run lower then 1024X768

    (like 800x600) the screen will be clipped.

     

    Its still not a necessity. We ran DCS 800 x 600 you just need to be able to push buttons. Also servman made most of the process autonomous so clipping didnt matter.

     

    Edit

     

    One other thing thats super important is the OS your using. I recommend staying away from Server OS's due to the fact that it takes a fair amount of tech knowledge to get the machine to perform as a desktop. Also some remote admin programs will not work on Server OS's without purchasing a license which will cost you $$$$
